My One Safe Place - Andrew Peterson

You’re my oasis

The eye of the hurricane

One look at your face is

All I need to remember my name

So I run away home

Yes, I run away home to you

I was an orphan

Caught in a thunderstorm

You opened the door and welcomed me

Into your arms

So I run away home

Yes, I run away home to you

I believe in the love of the Father and

I believe in the power of grace

I believe that He brought us together and

You are my one safe place

You are a fortress

I am under siege

You’re a light in the forest

I am a lost boy out in the trees

So I run away home

Yes, I run away home to you

Don’t be scared, it’s alright

It’s a weight you were not meant to shoulder

But you bear so much light

And it’s brighter each day we get older

And I know that you’re broken too

But you are a sacrament God has spoken through

He’s spoken through you

I am my beloved’s

My beloved is mine

And the banner that hovers over us

Is older than time

So I run away home

Yes, I run away home

I believe in the love of the Father and

I believe in the power of grace

I believe that He brought us together and

You are my one safe place

My one safe place

My one safe place
